Blue Jays Migrate to the Bird Sanctuary

We have never seen such a variety of birds and all at one time. We have hours of enjoyment just watching them come and go into what we now call our yard the bird sanctuary. They love the food and water and sprinklers provided.

The Bird Sanctuary

They even have their own feeds and bird baths! They love them!

Cardinals Bird Sanctuary

The red cardinals love the Barker bird sanctuary. We get hours of enjoyment watching and listening to them make their bird calls and chase each other out of the yard and the trees

Fathers Camp in Medina, TX

In July I attended a girls camp for girls at risk. There were about 21 girls there. I was asked to be the music worship leader. It was alot of work, but I think most of them liked the music. I tried to provide a variety of songs, from action, fun songs, as well as worship. The camp grounds are beautiful and the girls had a variety of activities ie. horseback riding, swimming, hiking Mt. Moriah, they loved that, crafts. They had approximately 1 hour a day of Bible study and devotions, and a class on Purity, presented by the nurse. One girl accepted Jesus and there were alot of girls that keft with a different attitude. The last night several girls shared stories of their life. I was very thankful for the home I was raised in, although not perfect, but, I realized things could always be worse. I left camp vowing I would pray for the girls as they all went their separate ways. It was a wonderful experience for the girls to be able to attend camp free and to be able do so many things that otherwise they might not ever get to do.
